Well, Accent UK are off to our first ever US Comicon, Seattle's Emerald City Comicon to be precise. We've been invited to share a table with our friends over at Tales From The Parent's Basement, where we will help them sell copies of their anthology '8am', which contains contributions from a few Accent UK regulars, including a prequel to Whatever Happened To The World's Fastest Man ?, written by myself and illustrated by Marleen Lowe (of course). We'll also take as many copies of Accent UK stuff as we can fit into our suitcases, hand luggage and pockets.

.. over on his blog ... and does commissions ... he's got a very unique style ... so if you collect sketches around a theme then your collection will be all the better for having a piece of his artwork in there ..

About Me

I'm your typical 20th Century bloke living in the 21st Century and wondering what's going on. I like to live in a world where there are still questions to be answered and mysterious happennings. My ideal magazine would be the result of combining Fortean Times with New Scientist ... and leaving it to the reader to interpret.
I work against IT during the day, and at night I try to steal moments to create comic books. Either as writer, artist or both. I've formed a small independent comic company in the UK, Accent UK, with Colin Mathieson, which produces quite well received annual themed anthologies, but is also now producing one shots. Comics that I've co-created and written include ''The Wolfmen'',''The Fall Of The Wolfmen'', with art by Andy Bloor and the 2009 EAGLE Award winning ''Whatever Happened To The World's Fastest Man?'' which was illustrated by Marleen Lowe. My own little doodlings appear in webcomic called ''Strange Times'' and the yearly anthologies.
